Major A. Grove presented Sgt. Craig Yoder with a plaque of appreciation from SCI Smithfield staff to recognize Yoder's deployment with the 420th Engineer Company Route Clearance from Indiana, Pennsylvania.
Yoder, who is in the U.S. Army Reserves, was deployed to Bagram Airfield (BAF), Afghanistan. He left on military orders to help the unit prep prior for deployment in November 2019.
The 420th Engineer Company (CLR) left in January to Fort Bliss, TX. Once their training was complete for Operation Sentinel, they flew to Kuwait, Camp Arifjan, where they awaited further clearance to enter Afghanistan.
Sgt. Yoder returned from duty June 2020. Thank you, Sgt. Yoder, for your service to our country!
